Resources to Help You Plan Your Next Adventure
Ready to start exploring your options? The internet is a treasure trove of information, but it can be overwhelming. Here are a few trusted starting points and general resources to help you on your journey. Many of these organizations also offer exclusive senior discounts, so be sure to inquire!
Some well-regarded tour operators that specialize in or have dedicated offerings for mature travelers include Road Scholar (known for its educational focus), Overseas Adventure Travel (for more adventurous, small-group travel), and Grand Circle Travel. These are just a few examples to begin your research. A simple online search for “senior group travel” will reveal many more options tailored to specific interests and budgets.
For lifestyle and community resources, AARP offers extensive articles and local chapters. Their website often features travel deals and valuable advice for senior travelers, making it a fantastic resource for planning and inspiration. For local programs, check your city or county’s Parks and Recreation department website, as they sometimes organize shorter, more local group excursions.
While travel offers a wonderful way to find community and purpose, these goals can be met at home as well. If you’re looking for ways to stay engaged between your adventures, new opportunities to give back can be found via AmeriCorps Seniors. Staying active and connected is the key to a vibrant life, whether you’re at home or abroad.
